We have a client who needs to send ICMP packets that are 32 Bytes long, which happens to be the Windows Command Shell default size. They have UPS Power rectifiers by a company called PowerOne which only respond to ping with a packet size of 32 Bytes. They must have been developed in a Window's Environment. You can ping them from a Windows Command Shell but only in Linux with ping -s 32 option.
It would be nice to be able to set the minimum size of an OpenNMS ping packet to 32 to work around this issue. Currently it is 48, so we must find 16 bytes to remove. There is a 32 byte payload currently in jicmp and part of that is used for storing round trip time. If possible, could that be reduced to 16 bytes?
